As National Apprenticeship Week comes to a close, we’re reflecting on an inspiring few days celebrating the incredible impact of earn-and-learn careers. At the start of the week, we proudly announced over 80 new apprenticeship & trainee opportunities across the UK and Ireland - reinforcing our commitment to developing talent and creating meaningful career pathways. 🎊 Laura Bowes, our People and Development Director, highlighted our ongoing dedication: "Whilst we have always had a strong ethos in growing our workforce, in 2022 we set our ambition to ensure we maintained a minimum level of 5% of our workforce in earn and learn careers, launching 40 apprenticeship vacancies. We are proud that not only as of today we have close to 200 individuals in earn and learn careers, but we have now doubled our commitment from two years ago, as we continue to aspire to maintain our Gold Membership in the 5% Club. 🏆 Investing in future talent isn’t a box we tick - it’s at the heart of how we grow as a business and is a fundamental part of our mission. In launching our people agenda, through earn-and-learn pathways, we’re making sure that as we grow and evolve, you can and will too!" 👏 We hope you've enjoyed getting to know some members of our team and hearing their stories throughout the week. And remember if you, your family, or your friends are interested in joining us, applications are still open! 🖊️ https://lnkd.in/dCnMNEx3 #CountOnUs #GrowWithUs #NAW2025 #EarnAndLearn #Apprenticeships

Meet Fiona Craig (MCIPD), our new Emerging Careers Lead at KAEFER UK & Ireland.

That’s where Fiona’s mission begins. Her goal? To inspire the next generation to see SIP roles as more than just jobs - they’re pathways to growth, development, and real pride. Through apprenticeships, hands-on opportunities, and listening to the voices of our current trainees, Fiona is determined to make a difference.

Last week, our People & Development Team visited TICA-ACAD House to discuss our forecasting for apprenticeships in 2025 (watch this space as we gear up for National Apprenticeships Week! 👀). It was fantastic to meet KAEFER UK & Ireland Apprentices from Sellafield, St Fergus, Mossmorran, and Industrial Midlands, who are all working towards their Level 2 qualifications in Thermal Insulation. Our visit included a tour of TICA’s recently expanded training facility, offering a great opportunity to gain deeper insight into how TICA operates and to witness first-hand the dedication that goes into developing the next generation of thermal insulation professionals. The team were also privileged to be present for the TICA awards ceremony, celebrating apprentices with the most outstanding attitude and biggest improvement. Congratulations to all the well-deserving winners! 👏🏼 Laura Bowes, People & Development Director at KAEFER UK & Ireland, said: "It was inspiring to see our apprentices in action and to strengthen our partnership with TICA. Together, we’re shaping a skilled workforce and ensuring the future of the thermal insulation industry is in great hands." We can’t wait to see what’s ahead for our apprentices and the opportunities that lie ahead in 2025. #GrowWithUs #Apprenticeships #SkillsForLife #ESG
